The AMC major focuses on how the fields of art and media operate within culture and how they transform it by studying formal, aesthetic and socio-cultural ways of understanding literature, visual art, film, music and other media. An Arts, Media & Culture degree prepares students for a range of careers including publishing, the arts, media, museum work, public relations and public history. It is also for those students pursuing a broad cultural literacy, as well as for those planning to continue their education in advanced study in performing and visual arts or the humanities.
Arts, Media & Culture majors have five tracks to choose from:

College student reading in library
